うな妨害電流を減少させるのが有利であることが判明し
ている。In this known discharge lamp, a transparent conductive layer is provided on the inside of the lamp vessel in order to prevent high-frequency interference currents from entering the main power supply. This conductive layer is connected to a rod-shaped lead-through member provided within the wall of the lamp vessel. As described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,568,859, it may be advantageous to connect the aforementioned conductive layer to one of the supply lines to the mains to reduce such disturbance currents. It's clear.

しくかつコストもよけいかかることとなる。In order to meet the standards imposed on maximum permissible disturbances, the aforementioned conductive layers must be relatively thick. This is a disadvantage since it adversely affects the light output of the discharge lamp. Moreover, providing such a relatively thick layer is technically difficult and costly.
本発明の目的は上述の如き欠点をなくし、かつ妨害を減

気的に接続することを特徴とする。In the electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp of the present invention as described above, the lead-through member is electrically connected to a contact member made of a conductive material that extends over a small (or most) of the inner periphery of the lamp vessel, and It is characterized by being electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer over most of the area.

るため上述の透明導電層上に発光層を設ける。Conveniently, the contact member is connected to one of the mains supply lines through an electrical conductor. It has been found that, according to the invention, high frequency electrical disturbances in the mains supply can be reduced to values that are significantly lower than in previous standards. This is because the contact member is in electrical contact with the transparent conductive layer over almost its entire length. Furthermore, it has been found that the present invention allows several times more interference suppression than in the discharge lamp where electrical contact is made only at one point (as is the case in the discharge lamp described in the above-mentioned Japanese patent application). By using contact members, the thickness of the transparent conductive layer can be significantly reduced. This contributes to increasing the light output of the discharge lamp. In an embodiment of the invention, the contact member is a strip of electrically conductive material. The strip and the transparent conductive layer can each be easily formed on top of each other. This strip is provided in close proximity to the lead-through member provided on the underside of the lamp container, close to the point where it is sealed to the sealing member of the lamp container. In such a position, the lamp vessel generally has a cylindrical part, so that the strip is actually annular (ring-shaped). A light-emitting layer is provided on the above-mentioned transparent conductive layer for conversion.

特にこれが当てはまる。In other embodiments, the contact member is formed from a conductive wire that leans against the transparent conductive layer. Such an annular wire can be installed very easily during manufacture. It is also possible to attach auxiliary elements to this line, such as holders for the amalgam. This wire can be placed, for example, in a groove in the wall of the lamp vessel, and then the wire can be held in its correct position to form a reliable electrical contact with the conductive layer. This is t! This is especially true when a is constructed from an elastic material.

A discharge lamp having a lamp vessel hermetically sealed and filled with metal vapor and rare gas, the discharge lamp having a core of magnetic material, During operation, an electric field is generated within the lamp vessel by a winding surrounding the core and a high-frequency current supply unit connected to it, and a transparent conductive layer is provided inside the lamp vessel, and this transparent conductive layer is provided inside the lamp vessel. In an electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp in which the conductive layer is connected to an electrical conductor located outside the lamp vessel by a lead-through member provided on the wall of the lamp vessel, the lead-through member extends over at least a large part of the inner periphery of the lamp vessel. 1. An electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp, characterized in that the lamp is electrically connected to a contact member of a conductive material which is connected to the transparent conductive layer over most of its length. 2. The electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp according to claim 1, wherein the contact member is a strip of conductive material. 3. The electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp according to claim 2, wherein the contact strip comprises aluminum. 4. The electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp according to claim 1, wherein the contact member is a conductive wire in contact with the transparent conductive layer. 5. The electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp according to claim 4, wherein the conductive wire is disposed in a groove in a wall of the lamp vessel. 6. The electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp according to claim 4 or 5, wherein the conducting wire is made of an elastic material. 7. Any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein the lead-through member is airtightly built into the end of the exhaust pipe of the sealing member that seals the lamp container, and the end of the lead-through member is fixed to the contact member. An electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp described in Crab. 8. Claim 7, wherein the lead-through member is fixed to the inside of the lamp container at a certain distance from the connection point of the contact member.
The electrodeless low-pressure discharge lamp described.
